January offers double the Dead Space, with the sequel to Visceral Games' sci-fi horror hit landing on the 25th and the similarly gory animated spin-off, Dead Space Aftermath, arriving the same day.

EA expands the Dead Space universe even further with Aftermath, a bloody animated film that follows up on the events of the original game. Dead Space Aftermath is a mix of hand-drawn and computer generated animation, soaked in blood and burning flesh, the kind of stuff perfect for Saturday mornings. It's coming to DVD and Blu-ray, if the Dead Space universe is something you'd like to explore even further.

If your initial impression is "Not gory enough!", give it a minute or two. Heads start exploding and skin starts flaying at an alarming rate as the trailer builds up steam.
